After a brief period of hysterical laughter and questioning his sanity, I ask him, "Why tell me?" He told me that as I was successful, he wanted to spend time with me learning more about running a printing business. This man is already a skilled press operator and has an outgoing personality. This man should have no trouble succeeding. This man took the time to point out that most businesses fail in the first year; he wanted to minimize his chances for failure and maximize his chances for success. In order to accomplish his goals, he took a weekend course on print management. He then went to two other businessmen in town and requested their input on operating a successful business. He then asked me and stated that he would like to work with me for the next six months in order to learn some of the hidden agendas that might limit his success. This man will start his operation in a nearby town and is not in direct competition with me and I am happy to assist him in any way possible. Why am I telling you this? Consider the plight of a new square dance caller. They might attend a caller school for a brief period of training, they might not. Many new callers buy a record player, a few records, speakers and a microphone. Many are good dancers, unfortunately few are good instructors. They have never taken the time to really learn how to teach. They have never taken the time to learn how to entertain. They have never taken the time to study timing and choreogra- phy. They have never taken the time to learn about pricing, hall rentals, taxes, accounting, bookkeeping, socializing, salesmanship, marketing, and all of the other things involved in becoming a successful caller. I wonder how many dancers we lose because the caller was not a good instructor. I wonder how many dancers we lose because we are not good entertainers. I wonder how many dancers we lose because we don't know how to sell and market our product. Why the litany of comments? Most business people who are considered successful have stumbled in that first year. They have lost customers and have had to work hard for replacements. In square Dancing today, we cannot afford to lose dancers. We will, but we shouldn't. To minimize this loss we (Callerlab, ACA, are you listening?) need to create a program whereby we can teach new callers some of the pit falls and traps of a starting caller. This should not be designed to replace the Caller's Schools and colleges in existence. We need entertainers who are callers. In this day of internet education, video tapes and CD's we could start a teaching program to teach someone the basics a calling and entertaining well Continued on page 26 American Square Dance, March 2005 5 FROM THE MAIL ROOM Hi Folks, Just wondering if anyone had seen the articles in two separate Woman's World magazines about Dancing and Square Danc- ing. The first on November 9 "Memory Booster's" — one memory booster was hitting the dance floor and another was singing songs...There were several more but those two particular ones caught my eye. In the December 7 issue it's "Smart Holiday Gifts"...Learn-to-square dance video and the articles proceeds to tell what square dancing can do for you. Just thought you might be interested in the these two articles... Happy Holidays!

  • The Rise of Guangchangwu in a Chinese Village
    International Journal of Communication 11(2017), 4499–4522 1932–8036/20170005 Reading Movement in the Everyday: The Rise of Guangchangwu in a Chinese Village MAGGIE CHAO Simon Fraser University, Canada Communication University of China, China Over recent years, the practice of guangchangwu has captured the Chinese public’s attention due to its increasing popularity and ubiquity across China’s landscapes. Translated to English as “public square dancing,” guangchangwu describes the practice of group dancing in outdoor spaces among mostly middle-aged and older women. This article examines the practice in the context of guangchangwu practitioners in Heyang Village, Zhejiang Province. Complicating popular understandings of the phenomenon as a manifestation of a nostalgic yearning for Maoist collectivity, it reads guangchangwu through the lens of “jumping scale” to contextualize the practice within the evolving politics of gender in post-Mao China. In doing so, this article points to how guangchangwu can embody novel and potentially transgressive movements into different spaces from home to park, inside to outside, and across different scales from rural to urban, local to national. Keywords: square dancing, popular culture, spatial practice, scale, gender politics, China The time is 7:15 p.m., April 23, 2015, and I am sitting adjacent to a small, empty square tucked away from the main thoroughfare of a university campus in Beijing. As if on cue, Ms. Wu appears, toting a small loudspeaker on her hip.1 She sets it down on the stairs, surveying the scene before her: a small flat space, wedged in between a number of buildings, surrounded by some trees, evidence of a meager attempt at beautifying the area.

  • The History of Square Dance
    The History of Square Dance Swing your partner and do-si-do—November 29 is Square Dance Day in the United States. Didn’t know this folksy form of entertainment had a holiday all its own? Then it’s probably time you learned a few things about square dancing, a tradition that blossomed in the United States but has roots that stretch back to 15th-century Europe. Square dance aficionados trace the activity back to several European ancestors. In England around 1600, teams of six trained performers—all male, for propriety’s sake, and wearing bells for extra oomph—began presenting choreographed sequences known as the morris dance. This fad is thought to have inspired English country dance, in which couples lined up on village greens to practice weaving, circling and swinging moves reminiscent of modern-day square dancing. Over on the continent, meanwhile, 18th- century French couples were arranging themselves in squares for social dances such as the quadrille and the cotillion. Folk dances in Scotland, Scandinavia and Spain are also thought to have influenced square dancing. When Europeans began settling England’s 13 North American colonies, they brought both folk and popular dance traditions with them. French dancing styles in particular came into favor in the years following the American Revolution, when many former colonists snubbed all things British. A number of the terms used in modern square dancing come from France, including “promenade,” “allemande” and the indispensable “do-si-do”—a corruption of “dos-à-dos,” meaning “back-to-back.” As the United States grew and diversified, new generations stopped practicing the social dances their grandparents had enjoyed across the Atlantic.
